I’ve just finished a change to the Onkyo binding. I’ve added a rule action that can be used to send raw eISCP commands to the receiver, so everyone is able to send commands that are not directly supported by the channels on the binding. Here are my changes: https://github.com/TheNetStriker/openhab2…

Hi David, i want to install, but don’t know if i need to uninstall xurrent onkyo binding or not. thanks, mcihael

@TheNetStriker I just saw this and am excited because I have an Onkyo receiver and would like to change radio stations using the binding so I am excited someone is looking at improving on the current binding. Have you received any feedback yet on your request for testers?

@Lukie The change was already merged into the main repository, so this does not need to be tested anymore: [Onkyo] Thing action to send raw eISCP commands (#4955) · openhab/openhab2-addons@d3126bc · GitHub @Ostseedrache You can uninstall the current binding in the Paper UI in the addons menu.

@TheNetStriker Thanks for your response. Installing wasn’t a problem. So i uninstalled now and reinstall with option to copy the jar into the addon directory. next step is using the rule action. but how? i can’t find a option to using it with the rule editor. so i can using your solution only wi…

This is awesome! I found your post because I have the exact same requirement with the volume of the center channel being too low. Unfortunately, I’m strugging with the sendRawCommand. In Visual Studio, it shows me that the method is undefined. If I save and test it anyway, I get the following outpu…

Alright, now it worked. Thanks a lot! On the documentation page I just saw a version “2.3” and “latest” and assumed latest means 2.4. Is it correct, that there’s no way to get values back from the receiver? I see in the Excel sheets that you can send “QSTN” to get the current values. But the metho…

No it is not possible to get the answer from the receiver with this function. The communication is done with a tcp socket, so the function would have to wait until the receiver sends the response and send that back. I found no function for this in the binding. At the moment the responses from the re…

OK, thanks for the comment, would probably break a lot changing that then. I should get pretty far with sending only.

You need to install the latest snapshot version of the Onkyo binding. This will be published with Openhab 2.5.
